The Stevens Park Bungalow That’ll Surprise You Inside (And Distract Me Greatly)

1910-Marydale1

Every time an Oak Cliff listing comes across my desk, I can’t help but look it up in the old Dallas Morning News archives. I don’t mean to bury the lead by relegating a home’s beautiful interior features to the third or fourth paragraph, but once I dive into the history of a home, street, or entire Oak Cliff addition, it’s many many hours later and I still don’t have any words written on this page you see here now.

But the interior of this 1930-built home in Stevens Park Estates is beautiful. It’s surprisingly spacious with four bedrooms, four baths, and 3,220 square feet and it’s been completely redesigned for maximum efficiency while keeping true to the authentic charm.

“The owners worked with contractor Jeff Blackwell to update the home, moving around some walls to make it for today’s style of home while honoring what makes this 1930 home special,” says listing agent Kathy Hewitt of Dave Perry-Miller Real Estate. ”He’s one of my favorites and specializes in North Oak Cliff.”

The expanded living area features an inviting fireplace, picture windows, and refinished original hardwoods that lead to the large dining room with bar.

The home offers an updated eat-in kitchen with premium stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, hand-glazed tile backsplash, and a walk-in pantry. It overlooks the patio with retractable awning, low-maintenance garden, grass dog run, and gated driveway with an oversized two-car garage.

The home’s bedrooms offer wonderful flexibility. Right now, the owner’s suite is located upstairs with a relaxing sitting room and access to a private balcony. This primary bath has a soaking tub, stand-alone shower, built-in heater, and an enormous walk-in closet.

If you prefer a downstairs primary suite, there’s a large guest bedroom with ensuite full bath that leads to a light-filled sunroom. Again, flexibility here. Make it a playroom, home office, or dedicated solarium to soak in the sunshine and treelined street.

In total, there are two bedrooms upstairs and two bedrooms downstairs. You pick how to mix and match bedrooms, primaries, and dens.

This home is located minutes from downtown, Bishop Arts District, and the Design District, plus it’s walking distance to Stevens Park Golf Course and nearby trails.

Oh, and what did I find about this 1930-built home at 1910 Marydale Drive in the archives? Well, I browsed the 1930s advertisements showcasing the Stevens Park Addition as one of the city’s most topographically stunning sites, and took several detours to look up …

I finally came to our own resources at Daltxrealestate.com. We wrote about this home being featured on the 2013 Oak Cliff home tour and Stevens Park Estates as one of Dallas’ first master-planned communities, without really calling it that. The neighborhood was plotted into separate districts for two-story, bi-level, and one-story homes and building materials were likewise mandated to be stone, brick, or stucco.

Kathy Hewitt of Dave Perry-Miller InTown has listed 1910 Marydale for $995,000. She and her team are hosting an open house Sunday from 2-4 p.m.
